3G vs WiFi

Wednesday, June 16th, 2010

Watching a video about Google TV, I once again had issues with the YouTube feed stuttering as the data does not arrive at my iPad fast enough (this on a fast Comcast cable internet), and I wondered what it would be like to watch via AT&T 3G (which at home here is quite good). Here [...]

The iPad begat the iPhone

Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010

I’m not sure how much the “concept tablet” would have been like today’s iPad, if the iPhone hadn’t already existed (the App store, for example, is critical to the success of the iPad) – but it’s interesting to read Steve Job’s comments: “I’ll tell you a secret. It actually started with the tablet first,” Jobs [...]

Virginia’s first computer

Thursday, April 22nd, 2010

I’m a strong believer that the iPad will bring the Internet to a new group of people, that had no interest in dealing with the hassles of multiple box computers with their mysterious cabling, installation complexities, anti-virus, etc, etc … built on the capabilities of the iPhone OS and the App Store, the iPad eliminates [...]

Friday, April 16th, 2010

Yes, a very mysterious effect … but after experimenting for days on the issue of slow connectivity of my iPad (WiFi tests, App store tests), I have a conclusion / solution – but it’s stupid and disappointing … Here, I’ve video’ed my iPad loading the App store when it has just a few hundred photos [...]

iPhone OS 4

Friday, April 9th, 2010

Honestly, the iPad should have shipped with some of the announced-today features of OS 4; but at least you can watch the presentation on your iPad, to see what you’re missing (till “Fall 2010″, anyway) … I didn’t see any mention of a way to fit more App icons on the iPad screen, either! Click [...]

iPad unboxing

Wednesday, April 7th, 2010

Whenever a new gadget appears, there’s always some need to post “unboxing”, showing pictures of the box, contents, gadget, etc. But this video (linked from TUAW), is a beautiful alternative – a stop-motion “self unboxing” created by Brian Stark: iPad – Unboxing Video from Brian Stark on Vimeo. (sadly it uses Flash, but iPhone/iPad users [...]
